This tutorial will be addressing how to create a custom "Component Library" group that can be distributed to other developers with pre-configured object settings or graphics. For this example, I will create set of objects and graphics with a St. Patrick's theme.

Create a new category. Right click on "ComponentLibrary" and select "New".

The new object in your component group will retain all property settings including tags and actions.

Put a grouped set of objects into the library. Select all objects on the screen, right click and select Group in the menu.

To distribute your library files, go to "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Beijer Electronics AB\iX Developer 2\ComponentLibrary\" and copy the directory of your new group to be placed at the same location on another developers PC.
